It was designed and written by <a href="/wiki/Microsoft" title="Microsoft">Microsoft</a>. Amiga Basic shipped with <a href="/wiki/AmigaOS" title="AmigaOS">AmigaOS</a> versions 1.1 to 1.3. It succeeded <a href="/wiki/MetaComCo" title="MetaComCo">MetaComCo</a>'s ABasiC included in AmigaOS 1.0 and 1.1 and was superseded by <a href="/wiki/ARexx" title="ARexx">ARexx</a>, a <a href="/wiki/REXX" class="mw-redirect" title="REXX">REXX</a>-style scripting language, from AmigaOS version 2.0 onwards. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History_and_description">History and description</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Amiga_Basic&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History and description"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Amiga Basic provided not only the common BASIC language, but also attempted to provide an easy-to-use <a href="/wiki/API" title="API">API</a> for the Amiga's unique graphics and sound capabilities. <code>OBJECT</code> commands, for example, made it easy to create moving objects – <a href="/wiki/Sprite_(computer_graphics)" title="Sprite (computer graphics)">sprites</a> and <a href="/wiki/Blitter_object" title="Blitter object">bobs</a> that could be drawn with an external drawing program, <i>Object editor</i>, that was supplied with AmigaBASIC. An unusual feature of the language is that it theoretically allowed the calling of handwritten <a href="/wiki/Assembly_language" title="Assembly language">assembly language</a> subprograms; however, this feature never worked because of a bug that failed to align the assembly language instructions correctly on a <a href="/wiki/Word_(data_type)" class="mw-redirect" title="Word (data type)">word</a> boundary, as required by the Amiga's native <a href="/wiki/MC68000" class="mw-redirect" title="MC68000">MC68000</a> processor.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (February 2018)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup> </p><p><i><a href="/wiki/Compute!" title="Compute!">Compute!</a></i>, a popular computer magazine published while Amiga Basic was still being shipped, included many AmigaBASIC <a href="/wiki/Type-in_program" title="Type-in program">type-in programs</a> in their articles. These were typically implementations of simple programs such as rudimentary games, system and file <a href="/wiki/Utilities" class="mw-redirect" title="Utilities">utilities</a> and <a href="/wiki/Desk_accessories" class="mw-redirect" title="Desk accessories">desk accessories</a> such as analog clocks and address books. </p><p>Amiga Basic itself was rendered obsolete because of incompatibilities with AmigaOS 2.0 and the hardware successors to the <a href="/wiki/Motorola_68000" title="Motorola 68000">Motorola 68000</a> CPU. Some incompatibilities were due to the disregard of programming guidelines set forth by Commodore.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (July 2015)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup> However, there were a number of third-party compiled BASIC languages released for the Amiga that could compile Amiga Basic programs with minimal changes, like A/C BASIC or Cursor (see below). Some of these compiled BASICs continued to work with AmigaOS 2.0, and as they were compiled rather than interpreted, they generally ran much faster than the original. </p><p>Although Amiga Basic was superseded by ARexx in AmigaOS 2.0, the two languages had very different functions and capabilities. Hobbyist programmers had changed by the time of AmigaOS 2.0's release and were more likely to be interested in <a href="/wiki/Script_(computing)" class="mw-redirect" title="Script (computing)">scripting</a> existing third party applications than in writing new programs entirely from scratch. ARexx was seen as better fitting their needs than BASIC. </p><p>Along with Microsoft's very similar BASIC for the <a href="/wiki/Macintosh" class="mw-redirect" title="Macintosh">Macintosh</a>, Amiga Basic was the first <a href="/wiki/BASIC_interpreter" title="BASIC interpreter">BASIC interpreter</a> from Microsoft to not require <a href="/wiki/Line_number" title="Line number">line numbers</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> adopting instead a top-down approach to executing the <a href="/wiki/Lines_of_code" class="mw-redirect" title="Lines of code">lines of code</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Labels" class="mw-redirect" title="Labels">labels</a> to indicate the <code>GOTO</code> instruction where to jump. However programs that contained line numbers were able to run; the line numbers were simply treated as labels for the purpose of flow control. It was also the first Microsoft interpreted language capable of calling OS functions and dynamic libraries through the command <code>LIBRARY</code>. For example: <code>LIBRARY Graphics.library</code> command invokes the standard Amiga Graphics.library from which to call functions. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2
